Neomalsore is a flower that bloomed after the hard work of 14 generations in the heart of the Albanian mountains, particularly Molla village extension, called Nanbli. It is the great love for our roots, history, culinary, nature and culture, that kept us here with the great passion of sharing it with the other people, who are as passionate as us for the authentic, for the real. Neomalsore is accessible via a 70-minute boat ride through Lake Koman’s wild canyons and operates from the end of april to the begin of november.

“The Molla tribe is particularly legendary for hosting here; for generations they have served passing travellers' good food and wine and ferried them across the lake, ever honouring the Kanun.”: says FINANCIAL TIMES magazine for us.
Outside food or drinks are not allowed. Please respect our local identity!

Neomalsore aims to offer a genuine local experience with some of the ingredients of the highlander’s life: the local peasant food, accommodation in a traditional Kulla style house, farming, sailing through the canyons and hiking in our glorious mountains. Our mission is to bring guests closer to our local slow-life style, far away from urbanisation but closer to nature, without internet and electricity but with another kind of connection…Giving them an opportunity to re-connect and create stronger bonds with nature through what we do. Old houses, no toilets inside, not perfect-tidy rooms but a rare authentic experience! Our family is very open to talk, share the time and tell you more about this place and traditions. You can join us in farming, fishing, planting and we would be enthusiastic to teach you more of our mother earth’s wisdom! A traditional museum house with rare ethnography garments where we live for almost a century. The first family on the valley, to open its doors to tourism since 2010. Local, good quality and close relations are important to us. Our yard and beach are an open balcony to the starriest nights you might have ever seen!

Thanks to all our small local farmers who keep producing despite the challenges and thanks to the travellers who appreciate our hard work and nature! By staying with us, you are supporting a horizontal development of our valley and an empowerment of each. To support the local-to-local tourism, we are offering 25% discount to albanian travellers for the month of october. If you are traveling from far, we suggest you spend a night at Agora Farmhouse, which is 1 h distance drive from the Koman port. We are settled 153 km from Tirana and 75 km from Shkoder. Email/WhatsApp us for reservations. Early birds till Feb 1 get discounts

Guesthouse

We are proud to be the first and the only traditional house in the area for hosting tourists. We are working hard to become an inspiration for other houses to open their doors to guests and to offer such cherishing experiences. Kulla style, stone made, three family rooms with a fantastic mountain or lake view. Not perfectly tidy but with a great family history and rare ethnographical garments. As the house is traditional, the toilet and shower are outside and shared. Let this be a romantic experience, taking the stairs during a starry night and going to the toilet. Don’t forget to look up….

Unique Gastronomy

Our area offers a unique culinary of peasant foods with a strong foundation on biodiversity, originality and sustainability; The malsor foods & old recipes inherited from our grandmothers and preserved with a lot of love and care. Not a fine dining but a real one :) As we cook slowly on fire the menu is fixed by our mother who is freshly cooking three times a day. We are working hard to make it zero waste! This way we are offering medium portions with the possibility of refilling it. The leftovers like cheese are processed on fire and transformed into different pies, occasionally. Our pigs, goats and chickens are our great partners to keep it sustainable :) As we cook traditionally, our cuisine doesn't offer vegan options and sometimes it's a repeatable menu.
